Deep Dish Fuckfest posted:I just realized that suddenly being sent to Terra means Kila probably saw Rabies disappear and must be freaking the gently caress out right about now. Hell, maybe the Tokyo police will just assume it's another murder, Kila hid the body, and they'll throw his rear end in jail. Then they'll try to pin every other murder on him as well, because if there's one thing Japanese cops like it's finding a culprit, regardless of actual guilt. With a little luck, Kila's gonna get the chair. Surely there would be a body, considering all the 'midnight murder' victims so far have been taken to Terra instead but have left corpses behind.

Maybe the Terra adventure is just a dream Rabies is having as he's being asphyxiated by the murderer.

Well I knew Kila was a murderer from his dead stare. I don't know if he murdered the protagonist, but I'm sure he murdered someone. I mean look at him. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() There's nothing behind those eyes, Kila...or is there...!? Edit: I just now noticed that Kila's teeth are flush with his chin, almost like they're just different color fur. It's bugging me. This is all bugging me.

We say "teeth", but it looks to me like one big tooth with a partial groove down the middle. Needless to say, this makes eating pocky quite the challenge!

Kila the Killa! It all makes sense! I have to confess, I can't read a whole update at a time. I get about halfway through before cringing too hard and having to stop. Also, Furry Outsider's philosophy reminds me of Tommy from The Boosh. "We dream... But do we really dream?" "Are you finished?" "I'm finished... But am I really finished?"

![]() You guys having nice holidays? Well too bad, this game is so terrible that it's canceled Christmas. So here's the first question, where Endymion pulls a Professor Oak on us. We'll say Rabies is male because all the backer OCs are. ![]() And Konrad hits on us like a loving creep. ![]() ![]() Does Rabies want a six-digit salary and stock options, or "experience"? Hmmmmmm. ![]() Was Jesus subjected to really bad questionnaires too? ![]() Konrad now's not (nor ever will be) the time to tell me about your sub fantasies. ![]() ![]() ![]() You're seriously going to ask a question about trust to the person you just kidnapped? I'm skeptical you two are even assassins. I haven't seen you stab one person yet. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I kinda wanna punch both of you right now, so let's say Rabies prefers attacking. ![]() ![]() ![]() Kill 'em all! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I yearn for sweet release. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() As demonstrated by the background remaining the same with static character images. ![]() ![]() C'mon Endymion, stab Konrad. You know you need it. ![]() The gently caress kind of questions are these? ![]() ![]() Present company absolutely included! ![]() ![]() ![]() Okay, this bothers me. Why are they bothering with normal bureaucratic procedures? Velasquez made it pretty drat clear that he wanted to see Rabies as soon as possible. ![]() Why would assassins use the postal service? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() WHY WOULD ASSASSINS HAVE THEIR MAIL DELIVERED IN A PUBLIC PLACE ![]() Yeah nothing I love more than slamming down a few margaritas at the DMV. ![]() ![]() What kind of poo poo government installs an office in a bar? ![]() ![]() So what's going on at FURRYWORLD PRIME? ![]() I seem to have a talent for asking questions I immediately regret. ![]() There's something concerning about how he didn't believe the murders were caused by stupid quantum mechanics poo poo, as if that's an accomplishment. ![]() ![]() Why does Singe, a guy I think is a dragon, have fur? ![]() ![]() ![]() I think Klace gives himself too much credit to think that he's popular enough to warrant stalkers. ![]() ![]() Uh, yeah they do. Serial killers have pretty well-documented periods of "cooling off". ![]() ![]() Me, I hope. ![]() ![]() Two pop idols? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Does nobody in Tokyo even do the most basic police work? ![]() ![]() Wait a minute, one of these victims died at 12:01 AM! FAKE NEWS! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() So what, Endymion and Konrad are summoning people over who just happened to be murdered by the serial killer at the exact same time? ![]() ![]() You just spend about five paragraphs establishing that you're pretty drat sure the murders aren't isolated. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Oh gently caress you. What kind of head-in-rear end logic is that? ![]() ![]() ![]() "I, a band manager, know more about detective work than the actual detectives." ![]() ![]() You guys are awfully calm considering the main star of your big tour just got strangle-summon-murdered. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Something weird, I bet. ![]() ![]() ![]() Aren't you two Klace's main managers? Wouldn't you see each other constantly? ![]() ![]() Hey, people needed a scapefurry. v ![]() ![]() Who talks like this. ![]() Should I start a running counter for every time someone says 'Indeed'? ![]() ![]() ![]() I demand an alibi for why he refuses to button up his shirt. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() These two seriously sound like goddamn robots reacting to Klace's death. ![]() ![]() ![]() 3. ![]() ![]() ![]() And the police didn't loving announce this? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() How does 'copycat' become a word when cats in this universe are anthro and fully sapient? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() So what was the good goddamn point of Jade dragging Rabies up to their office to spout her quantum mechanics theory? Actually, I know the answer to this. Klace wrote this game chapter-by-chapter, and did not plan any aspect of the story ahead of time. ![]() ![]() Just say it, Jade. You think a ghost is doing this. ![]() ![]() Please, Jade, tell us about how you think quantum mechanics works. ![]() ![]() Also, didn't her whole theory rest on that one guy getting choked out and surviving? And since he lied, the whole thing kind of falls apart? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Something tells me Singe has poor hiring skills.

Blarghalt posted:Why does Singe, a guy I think is a dragon, have fur? It's actually pretty common for furries to sorta just redesign mythical creatures. Dragons get fur instead of scales, griffons get fur instead of feathers, etc etc. ![]() There's precedent in other cultures for these things (Asian myth has furred dragons, for example), but I'm fairly sure these didn't factor those in. Also, wow. It seems like Klace put a stopper on every single character's capacity to have extreme emotions. No tears now, only indeeds.

A few other characters also had varying fur density, with the shortest fur being drawn as essentially colored skin. It could certainly be that. Waffleman_ posted:"Singe." But, as mentioned, it seems it's another of those OCs that take inspiration from shows like American Dragon that popularized the leaner Asian dragons.

Miacis posted:As it turns out, Singe is just is the name of some dude's fursona, and that name isn't particularly related to singing. It's way more obvious: its thing is fire, as it apparently lives in a volcano and is a scientist... which I guess they were trying to evoke with that white jacket. I can imagine it was left wide open for the sole purpose of showing off that very elegant "white heart on pink fur" design element. Yes, I know what singe means, that is the exact point I was making. The dragon is named Singe. And this is probably why you shouldn't have random people design and name your major characters.

And I assume "Rocker" is similarly someone's OC that Klace thought was perfect for making into one of the band members because he's, you know, a rocker and all. Except now we have a rock band where one of the musicians is literally named "Rocker".

And motherFUCK, if anything has ever needed an editor it's that rambling incoherent conversation between Singe and Jade. I've attempted to read through it more than once now and I still have no idea why the asscrack Klace thought it was in any way helpful to the story to a) introduce the X-factor of "another group of Midnight Deaths cases that were actual murders and not mysterious maybe-suicides, thus complicating the theories we have about them" and b) remove that factor from consideration by declaring them the work of a copycat killer and thus irrelevant, in the same conversation. I mean, if there was some kind of plot element that hung on that idea, maybe? But we only just found out that it was a possibility and the game tells us to not worry about it and we're back to square one.
